Thanks. I have a PTG bolt with M16 cut that I can copy, or for that matter I bet PTG has a drawing I can access. Looked like a 1/4" endmill for the main slot, then offset it .010" for the final .260" width. The pocket in the slot obviously takes a smaller EM. Didn't look difficult. Do you use an endmill to start the hole for the pin? Looked like even a spotting drill might want to scoot off the radius.

I've got this damn 30-06 <grin>. It was the rifle I got my first deer with. I can't seem to make myself shoot it. Recently I worked up an accurate LR load with the ELD's but I STILL never seem to shoot it. It's unused "stuff" and I'm coming to dislike having unused stuff around.
I also have a nice fast twist fluted Pac-Nor .33 caliber barrel from last year's aborted wild hair to build a big .33. It's also stuff.
Sounds like I'm a hour of feed rail work, a little lathe work opening the bolt face, and an M16 extractor cut away from combining the two unused stuffs into something cool! Sweet.
